PREFACE.
In presenting this little pamphlet to the family I must
apologize for its incompleteness, but the difficulties encountered
in such an undertaking can only be appreciated by those
attempting the same.
This is not intended as a history of the family in any sense
of the word, but is merely a preliminary collection of facts, and
is now published only at the earnest and repeated requests of
many members of the family.
The author most earnestly hopes that those members of
the family into whose hands one of these little books may fall
will let him know any corrections so that he may at a future
time be better prepared to publish a history worthy of our
illustrious family. THE AUTHOR
Salt Lake City, Utah,

Jacob Brown attended school at the Trenton Academy.
Starting out in life he taught school at Crosswick, New Jersey;
from here he went to Ohio to survey land, but soon returned
and taught a Quaker school in New York City. It is at this
stage that his identity became fixed in the state of New York;
he at once became acquainted with many men of genius and
versatility, especially Governor Morris.
Governor Morris at once discovered the latent qualities of
this Quaker teacher. He introduced him to Rudolph Teller, a
State Councillor of Bern, Switzerland, who was the agent of a
laud company in the St. Lawrence region of New York. Teller
went with Brown to his father's house in Pennsylvania and
proposed to sell the family a large tract of land under easy
payments for two dollars per acre. This he succeeded in doing,
and the party composed of Jacob, his father Samuel and brother
Samuel, started. After wintering at High Falls they launched
their boats and sailed down the river to where Carthage now
stands, then overland and founded Brownville, New York. In
May Jacob returned to Pennsylvania and brought out the fam-
ily, coming up the Mohawk to Lake Oneida and the Osage river
and thence on Lake Ontario to Brownville.
Most of the year was spent in clearing land and erecting
mills. Jacob and his brother Samuel surveying two townships,
the former acting as land agent for one LeR&y, the proprietor.
Under Jacob roads to Utica and Rome were opened, but for a
long time supplies came from Kingston, Canada, and were
paid for in potash.
Against his Quaker traditions Jacob became the Colonel
of the local Militia. At the age of thirty-five he, foreseeing the
war that was hovering about them, went to Mr. Armstrong,
then Secretary of War, and said he wanted the command of a
brigade; that he had little or no military training, but that he
had all the other requisites, and that if Mr. Armstrong would
give him the brigade he would never have cause to regret it.
14
Armstrong offered him a regiment, but Brown adhered to his
request for a brigade, and Armstrong, knowing his solid worth,
finally granted his request. This Quaker soldier divided with
Winfield Scott and Peter B. Porter the honors achieved in the
Northern States.
In 1810 he was appointed brigadier general, and in 1812
command of the northern frontier from Oswego to Lake St. Fran-
cis, a line of two hundred miles. On October 4, 1812, he repelled
a superior number of British troops, at Ogdensburg. He was
now offered a regiment in the regular service, but refused.
During the Spring of 1813 he assumed command of Sackett's
Harbor, where, on May 29, 1813 he again defeated a superior
force. On July 19th he was appointed brigadier general in
the regular army, and on January 24, 1814, in command of the
Army of the Niagara with the rank of major general.
In the campaign that followed the American forces were
successful. General Brown took possession of Fort Erie, and on
the 5th of July gained the victory over General Riall, at Chip-
pewa. On the 24th of the same month he defeated a superior
force under General Drummond at Lundy's Lane, where he re-
ceived two serious wounds. In the sortie on Fort Erie on the
17th of September, 1814, he again defeated Drummond. It
was now said of General Brown,
"
No enterprise he undertook
ever failed."
At the close of the war he was retained in command of the
Northern Division of the Army, and on the 10th of March, 1821,
was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the United States Army.
The City of New York ordered a portrait of him to b«
painted, which now hangs in the City Hall. They also offered
him the freedom of the City.
On the 3d of November, 1814, he received the thanks of
Congress for gallent conduct in the successful battles of Chip-
pewa, Niagara and Erie, in which British veteran troops were
beaten and repulsed by equal or inferior numbers, and a gold
medal, emblematic of these triumphs, tendered him.
At the time of Jacob Brown's death, John Quincy Adams
wrote in his diary:
"
The immediate cause of his death was lung fever, taken
this day week, and its primary cause was the severe wounds he
15
had received during the war with Great Britain, and the para-
lytic shock which he received some years afterwards, disclosed
the malignancy of it. His health had been declining for sev-
eral years and though long sustained by a firm and buoyant
spirit, has been sinking irredeemably for the last three months.
On the 14th of last month he came and disclosed, in a manner
that deeply affected me, his own state of mind and body, of
which he was fully conscious. Lieutenant Vinton said that his
last thoughts were of the public, recollections of his sufferings
and services, and anticipations of the greatness and glory of his
country.
"
General Brown was one of the eminent men of the day,
and though bred a Quaker was a man of lofty and martial spirit,
and in the last war contributed perhaps more than any other
man to redeem and establish the military character of his
country."
On the eve of the election of John Quincy Adams, General
Brown called upon him to urge the importance of a good under-
standing between Governor DeWitt Clinton's friends and his.
A union of northern interests, instead of weakness, defects and
disappointments of the North.
"
I told him," said Mr. Adams,
"
I concurred in his opinions and Mr. Clinton knew it, and the
only person to be considered was Mr. Clinton himself. He was
professing to be my friend and supporter, but his friends had
been and still were moving in a different direction. Brown said
he hoped this was not so, and said he knew Clinton despised
John C. Spencer as an unprincipled man."
Through Brown, Calhoun sent word to Mr. Adams that he
was neutral between Adams and Jackson, but that his personal
wish was for Adams's election.
Mr. Adams speaks of no man with so much respect as he
does of General Brown. At the request of his friends he wrote
the obituary inscription and recorded it in his diary:
"
Sacred
to the memory of General Jacob Brown, who was born in Bucks
County, Pennsylauia, on the 9th day of May, 1775, and died at
the City of Washington, Commander-in-Chief of the Army, on
the 27th day of February, 1828.
"
Let him who in after years
Shall view this monument of praise,
For honor heave the patriot sigh
And for his Country learn to die."

Appointed major and paymaster U. S. Army, September 5,

The following Special Order was published at his death:
17
War Department,
Paymaster General's Office,
Washington, D. C.
Mch. 9th, 1893.
The Paymaster General is grieved to have to announce the
death of another of his predecessors. General Nathan William
Brown, U. S. Army, died at his residence in this city on the
morning of the fourth instant, aged seventy-five years.
At the time of his birth, his father, Major General Jacob
Brown, was in command of the Army of the United States, so
that the subject of this brief sketch seems to have belonged to
the army all his life. His first active service connected with it
however, was as paymaster's clerk, and his services date from
almost half a century ago. He held this position from 1845 to
1849, when he was commissioned major and paymaster. He be-
came lieutenant colonel and Deputy Paymaster General in 1864,
and Paymaster General in 1880.
After his retirement in 1882 he made his home in this city.
His remains now rest with those of his army friends in the
Arlington National Cemetery.
During his five years' service in San Diego, California, at-
tended by difficulties and dangers that made travel uncertain
and life precarious, he regularly and fearlessly performed bi-
monthly journeys across the desert of Yuma, sometimes unac-
companied by either clerk or escort.
Through the late war the performance of his arduous and
almost overwhelming duties were characterized by invariable
promptness, earnestness and signal excellence. His entire
service speaks of work zealously and faithfully done ;
the
enviable summary and result — a spotless record to survey
death.
A sympathetic and genial man, his intercourse with men
was marked by a simplicity of speech and manner unusual and
delightful. He had an air of genial dignity. At all times he
was the kindly, quiet, unostentatious gentleman, whose friends
were many and whose actions were just.

  • 11. PREFACE. In presenting this little pamphlet to the family I must apologize for its incompleteness, but the difficulties encountered in such an undertaking can only be appreciated by those attempting the same. This is not intended as a history of the family in any sense of the word, but is merely a preliminary collection of facts, and is now published only at the earnest and repeated requests of many members of the family. The author most earnestly hopes that those members of the family into whose hands one of these little books may fall will let him know any corrections so that he may at a future time be better prepared to publish a history worthy of our illustrious family. THE AUTHOR Salt Lake City, Utah, April, 1896.

  • 21. 13 No. 42. JACOB BROWN, son of No. 28, 27, 3, 1. Born at the old homestead in Bucks county, Pennsylvania, May 9,1775; married Pamela Williams, of Williamstown, Mass., December 26, 1802; died in Washington, D. C, February 27, 1828, buried in the Congressional burying ground. Jacob Brown attended school at the Trenton Academy. Starting out in life he taught school at Crosswick, New Jersey; from here he went to Ohio to survey land, but soon returned and taught a Quaker school in New York City. It is at this stage that his identity became fixed in the state of New York; he at once became acquainted with many men of genius and versatility, especially Governor Morris. Governor Morris at once discovered the latent qualities of this Quaker teacher. He introduced him to Rudolph Teller, a State Councillor of Bern, Switzerland, who was the agent of a laud company in the St. Lawrence region of New York. Teller went with Brown to his father's house in Pennsylvania and proposed to sell the family a large tract of land under easy payments for two dollars per acre. This he succeeded in doing, and the party composed of Jacob, his father Samuel and brother Samuel, started. After wintering at High Falls they launched their boats and sailed down the river to where Carthage now stands, then overland and founded Brownville, New York. In May Jacob returned to Pennsylvania and brought out the fam- ily, coming up the Mohawk to Lake Oneida and the Osage river and thence on Lake Ontario to Brownville. Most of the year was spent in clearing land and erecting mills. Jacob and his brother Samuel surveying two townships, the former acting as land agent for one LeR&y, the proprietor. Under Jacob roads to Utica and Rome were opened, but for a long time supplies came from Kingston, Canada, and were paid for in potash. Against his Quaker traditions Jacob became the Colonel of the local Militia. At the age of thirty-five he, foreseeing the war that was hovering about them, went to Mr. Armstrong, then Secretary of War, and said he wanted the command of a brigade; that he had little or no military training, but that he had all the other requisites, and that if Mr. Armstrong would give him the brigade he would never have cause to regret it.
  • 22. 14 Armstrong offered him a regiment, but Brown adhered to his request for a brigade, and Armstrong, knowing his solid worth, finally granted his request. This Quaker soldier divided with Winfield Scott and Peter B. Porter the honors achieved in the Northern States. In 1810 he was appointed brigadier general, and in 1812 command of the northern frontier from Oswego to Lake St. Fran- cis, a line of two hundred miles. On October 4, 1812, he repelled a superior number of British troops, at Ogdensburg. He was now offered a regiment in the regular service, but refused. During the Spring of 1813 he assumed command of Sackett's Harbor, where, on May 29, 1813 he again defeated a superior force. On July 19th he was appointed brigadier general in the regular army, and on January 24, 1814, in command of the Army of the Niagara with the rank of major general. In the campaign that followed the American forces were successful. General Brown took possession of Fort Erie, and on the 5th of July gained the victory over General Riall, at Chip- pewa. On the 24th of the same month he defeated a superior force under General Drummond at Lundy's Lane, where he re- ceived two serious wounds. In the sortie on Fort Erie on the 17th of September, 1814, he again defeated Drummond. It was now said of General Brown, " No enterprise he undertook ever failed." At the close of the war he was retained in command of the Northern Division of the Army, and on the 10th of March, 1821, was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the United States Army. The City of New York ordered a portrait of him to b« painted, which now hangs in the City Hall. They also offered him the freedom of the City. On the 3d of November, 1814, he received the thanks of Congress for gallent conduct in the successful battles of Chip- pewa, Niagara and Erie, in which British veteran troops were beaten and repulsed by equal or inferior numbers, and a gold medal, emblematic of these triumphs, tendered him. At the time of Jacob Brown's death, John Quincy Adams wrote in his diary: " The immediate cause of his death was lung fever, taken this day week, and its primary cause was the severe wounds he
  • 23. 15 had received during the war with Great Britain, and the para- lytic shock which he received some years afterwards, disclosed the malignancy of it. His health had been declining for sev- eral years and though long sustained by a firm and buoyant spirit, has been sinking irredeemably for the last three months. On the 14th of last month he came and disclosed, in a manner that deeply affected me, his own state of mind and body, of which he was fully conscious. Lieutenant Vinton said that his last thoughts were of the public, recollections of his sufferings and services, and anticipations of the greatness and glory of his country. " General Brown was one of the eminent men of the day, and though bred a Quaker was a man of lofty and martial spirit, and in the last war contributed perhaps more than any other man to redeem and establish the military character of his country." On the eve of the election of John Quincy Adams, General Brown called upon him to urge the importance of a good under- standing between Governor DeWitt Clinton's friends and his. A union of northern interests, instead of weakness, defects and disappointments of the North. " I told him," said Mr. Adams, " I concurred in his opinions and Mr. Clinton knew it, and the only person to be considered was Mr. Clinton himself. He was professing to be my friend and supporter, but his friends had been and still were moving in a different direction. Brown said he hoped this was not so, and said he knew Clinton despised John C. Spencer as an unprincipled man." Through Brown, Calhoun sent word to Mr. Adams that he was neutral between Adams and Jackson, but that his personal wish was for Adams's election. Mr. Adams speaks of no man with so much respect as he does of General Brown. At the request of his friends he wrote the obituary inscription and recorded it in his diary: " Sacred to the memory of General Jacob Brown, who was born in Bucks County, Pennsylauia, on the 9th day of May, 1775, and died at the City of Washington, Commander-in-Chief of the Army, on the 27th day of February, 1828. " Let him who in after years Shall view this monument of praise, For honor heave the patriot sigh And for his Country learn to die."

  • 25. 17 War Department, Paymaster General's Office, Washington, D. C. Mch. 9th, 1893. The Paymaster General is grieved to have to announce the death of another of his predecessors. General Nathan William Brown, U. S. Army, died at his residence in this city on the morning of the fourth instant, aged seventy-five years. At the time of his birth, his father, Major General Jacob Brown, was in command of the Army of the United States, so that the subject of this brief sketch seems to have belonged to the army all his life. His first active service connected with it however, was as paymaster's clerk, and his services date from almost half a century ago. He held this position from 1845 to 1849, when he was commissioned major and paymaster. He be- came lieutenant colonel and Deputy Paymaster General in 1864, and Paymaster General in 1880. After his retirement in 1882 he made his home in this city. His remains now rest with those of his army friends in the Arlington National Cemetery. During his five years' service in San Diego, California, at- tended by difficulties and dangers that made travel uncertain and life precarious, he regularly and fearlessly performed bi- monthly journeys across the desert of Yuma, sometimes unac- companied by either clerk or escort. Through the late war the performance of his arduous and almost overwhelming duties were characterized by invariable promptness, earnestness and signal excellence. His entire service speaks of work zealously and faithfully done ; the enviable summary and result — a spotless record to survey death. A sympathetic and genial man, his intercourse with men was marked by a simplicity of speech and manner unusual and delightful. He had an air of genial dignity. At all times he was the kindly, quiet, unostentatious gentleman, whose friends were many and whose actions were just. William Smith, Paymaster-General, U. S. Army. Their issue being : 1.
